Star Wars: Rebels Action Figure Line Announced!

Looks like we need a new Forums Sub-Section. Here's the news about the Upcoming "Rebels" line.

I have to say I really like the packaging design this time around. It's refreshing after so much black.

And it's cool to see a Stormtrooper featured on the packaging finally. Very cool!

Star Wars Rebels Action Figure Packaging Revealed

In anticipation of Lucasfilm's Star Wars Rebels panel at New York Comic Con (Saturday, October 12, 2013, from 2:45 p.m. - 3:45 p.m. in room 1E of the Javits Convention Center) Hasbro is officially unveiling the packaging treatment for its Star Wars Rebels 3.75-inch action figure line supporting the upcoming animated series.

Star Wars Rebels continues the epic tradition of the legendary Star Wars saga with all-new exciting, action-packed adventures. It is a dark time in the galaxy, as the evil Galactic Empire tightens its grip of power from world to world. As the series begins, Imperial forces have occupied a remote planet, ruling with an iron fist and ruining the lives of its people. But there are a select few who are brave enough to stand up against the endless Stormtroopers and TIE fighters of the Empire: the clever and motley crew of the starship Ghost. Together, this ragtag group will face threatening new villains, have thrilling adventures, and become heroes.

The use of color is good, the helmet is a repeat of the Clone Wars and TLC lines which is not good, those lines are still rotting in a few stores.

I think this looks like an animated line based on the packaging. I don't think this will be a subforum of TBS, I think we'll just make it its own forum and consolidate some of the older lines into "retired".

Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.

Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.

The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.

Yeah. I meant a new forum section under the Toys/Collectibles section. The forum calls each one a sub-forum.
